39. Antecedents lead to consequences
Maybe it happened so suddenly that people felt a little unbelievable at first, and couldn't believe their ears. Li Qiang's arm holding the crutches was trembling, "What did you say?" ”
"Qiaoqiao was pushed into the puddle of washing clothes by Chunhua." Peach Blossom gasped and repeated again.
"Are you serious?!" Ho asked.
Xiuxiu, who reacted, shook He's arm, "Mother, let's go quickly." ”
"Okay." He responded with his mouth, but his feet did not move. She pinched Xiuxiu's arm with her backhand and said in a panic: "Xiuxiu, let's see what's wrong with my mother, why can't I open my legs." ”
It seemed like a long time ago, she also shivered so much that she gave away two lives, and they gradually became cold and hard in her arms
Here, Li Qiang had already thrown away his crutches, ran hard, and fell down without accident.
"Ouch, third." Hearing the movement outside, Yu quickly opened the door, ran out, and then bent down to help Li Qiang.
"I'm fine." Li Qiang gritted his teeth and said, unconsciously, tears had flowed down and blurred his vision. He stretched out his arms and tried several times, but he couldn't get up on his own. Why was he injured, why couldn't he save Qiaoqiao in the first place, is his daughter still alive? Li Qiang smashed his fist on the ground, and then yelled at Yu: "Save Qiaoqiao!" ”
The hoarse roar, with trembling, suddenly woke He up. What is she doing, is she going to let the tragedy happen again?
"You keep me at home!" He Shi, who calmed down, immediately arranged, she didn't want to save Qiaoqiao and put her son in, "You go to Wenjia Village immediately to inform Wen's to come back quickly..." He quickly stopped his mouth and dragged Yu. "Let's go. Say it on the way! ”
The three women ran out, and Peach Blossom spontaneously followed.
"Let's go to the tun. Who will drain water? He asked, hurrying forward.
"Uncle Wenhua!"
Xiuxiu and Yu shouted almost at the same time.
"Then don't you go and please!" He was so anxious that he slapped his thighs, when did this look like an oil lamp, and it would be lit after a planing.
Xiuxiu hurriedly responded and turned around and ran, she was lighter than Yu's, so she naturally ran faster.
At this time, Peach Blossom said weakly: "Grandma He, Qiaoqiao has been rescued." ”。“ It's true? When Yu heard this, his eyes widened.
He Shi was also a little excited, she touched her chest with one hand as if to cheer herself up. Asked, "That and that?"
The word "death" swirled several times in her throat, but she couldn't say it. She was afraid that she would cry as soon as she asked, she had already tried to send white-haired people to black-haired people, and she didn't want to experience that kind of pain again.
"Dead or not?" Yu doesn't have so many scruples, now he knows that Qiaoqiao's life and death are the most important, and life and death are just two words, who can escape?
"I don't know." Peach Blossom shook her head, she watched Li Wenhua rescue Qiaoqiao, and hurried to inform the He family. Although she is usually very smart. After all, he is just a child, and he has never seen life and death. Don't forget to inform the Li family when you are worried, which can be regarded as better than many children.
Xiuxiu held He's arm and asked Peach Blossom: "Then did your Grandpa Wenhua say anything?" ”
Peach Blossom lowered her head and thought for a moment. "Gas!"
The hearts of the three women who were hanging high suddenly fell back to their original positions because of these two words. If there is gas, that is, it is not dead. Blessed and blessed with great life, blessed by the Bodhisattva.
"You kid. Why didn't you say it earlier? He was angry and anxious, and he breathed a sigh of relief only to find that his back was soaked with sweat.
"Mother. Let's go and see Qiaoqiao. "Yu Shidao, now is not the time to pursue this.
"Yes, yes, yes!" He hurriedly held Yu's hand. "Quick, quick!"
Xiuxiu was a few steps behind the two, she turned back to Peach Blossom and said, "Peach Blossom, I have to trouble you to go back and tell my third brother, Qiaoqiao is fine, let him not panic." ”
"I'll go." Peach Blossom hurriedly said.
"Thank you!" Xiuxiu thanked her and hurriedly chased after her.
It was cooking time, and the people in the tunzi were not resting, and the stream was also full of people, whispering to each other.
"Yo, I didn't see that Chunhua, this little girl, is so young, why is her heart so vicious?"
"What do children know, not instigated by adults?"
"No, if the second egg is missing a little skin, he will want someone's life?"
"Isn't it obvious that you want to die or not?" The woman pursed her lips and pointed to Qiaoqiao, who had not yet woken up on the ground.
Chunhua hugged Xiao Xu's waist tightly, her face was snow-white, her whole body was trembling, the discussions around her, the contemptuous eyes, like a hammer smashing on her heart, she wanted to tell them loudly, she didn't mean to. She's just
Xiao Xu felt Chunhua's fear, touched the top of her hair, and said nothing to the innermost part of the crowd. The people around them, intentionally or unintentionally, walked a few steps away from their mother and daughter, and regarded them like poisonous snakes and beasts.
"Mother, I really didn't mean to." Except for Xiao Xu, everyone looked at her with disgust and vigilance, and Chunhua felt so afraid. Only when she is close to Xiao Xu can she feel a little at ease.
"Mother believes in you." Xiao Xu looked at Qiaoqiao in the crowd and replied.
Qiaoqiao only felt that she had been dreaming for a long time, and she seemed to have plunged headlong into the darkness, and there was a thick pitch-black liquid constantly pouring into her ears, nose, and mouth. She couldn't break free and wanted to sleep. Then the picture turned, and she seemed to have a dream, in which there were big warm eyes, bright colorful bubbles, and small fish swimming happily beside her. She reached out to grab one, but her body was
Choked a few mouthfuls of water, air poured into the tip of her nose, and Qiaoqiao slowly opened her eyes.
"Wake up, wake up." Someone said.
The crowd gradually gathered, and they all wanted to see it clearly.
"Qiao girl, how is it, does it hurt anywhere?" Li Wenhua asked.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Qiaoqiao coughed, spit out a mouthful ......of mud and sand, and hurriedly measured his body to spit out the mud and sand in his mouth.
"Cough a few more times. Spit out all the mud and sand. Li Wenhua patted Qiaoqiao's back.
Qiaoqiao couldn't cough up anything, and shook her head. And the sediment fell. Feeling very uncomfortable, I crawled to the edge of the stream again. Ready to wash it.
"I'll come, I'll come." A zealous woman saw Qiaoqiao's intentions and hurried forward. The little girl just loves to be clean, and as soon as she fell in, she ran to the water again without strength with her hands and feet, and she was not afraid of falling into it again.
"Thank you, Aunt Five." Qiaoqiao weakly thanked him.
The woman washed her hair skillfully, and the eyes of the people in the tunzi fell on Xiao Xu's mother and daughter, intentionally or unintentionally.
Chunhua shrank back, deliberately avoiding everyone's gaze, only to see a mother take her own child a few steps away from her. He also looked at her warily, as if she would do something to her child in the next second. Why is this happening, is she really that scary?
Qiaoqiao was carried by the woman, washed her nose and ears, and washed her hair slightly. was put in front of Li Wenhua and kowtowed to thank him.
"Get up, you kid. just fell into the water, how can the body stand it? Li Wenhua stretched out his hands to help Qiaoqiao up.
"Qiaoqiao Xie Wenhua's life-saving grace, great kindness. Toothless and unforgettable. Qiaoqiao kowtowed a few times, only to realize that there was blood flowing out. It was probably when I fell down, and my forehead touched the stone at the bottom of the stream. Draw a line of passage.
Li Wenhua thought that Qiaoqiao kowtowed too hard, so he pulled Qiaoqiao up. Covering her forehead, "Silly boy." How can grandpa afford such a big gift from you. ”
Qiaoqiao smiled and smiled, her pale face was strangely conspicuous, "Why can't you bear it, how can you save your life and cancel it with two kowtows." ”
The crowd praised Qiaoqiao for being a governor, and he said these two sentences, which are so decent, even adults may not be able to catch up. Someone went to call Li Dayong.
With such an obvious praise and depreciation, Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She suddenly ran up to Qiaoqiao and shouted, "I didn't mean to. ”
"Did anyone talk like that? Don't say a word of apology, but also shirk responsibility. Even if you didn't mean to, it's a fact that you pushed Qiaoqiao into the water. If you accidentally hurt someone's life, just forget about it if you didn't mean it? A woman could not look at it, and said.
"I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it!" Chunhua jumped to her feet in anger and repeatedly shouted grievances.
Qiaoqiao glanced at her and said lightly, "I don't blame you." ”
"Really?" Chunhua couldn't believe it.
Qiaoqiao nodded, "I know you want to give the second egg a breath." ”
"Ouch, I said it was a child's play, but if I wasn't careful, it turned out that there was an inside story." Peach Blossom Niang was so scared that she almost went out of her body just now, Peach Blossom went out with Qiaoqiao, and Qiaoqiao fell into the water, she thought it was Peach Blossom's hand. This hurried to make things clear, "Chunhua Niang, this is what you taught?" ”
Xiao Xu didn't mess up at all, "You haven't seen it with your own eyes, how do you know that Qiaoqiao didn't deliberately frame Chunhua?" ”
"Phew, faceless and skinless things, my family is not like that." He squeezed to the front and spat at Xiao Xu, "Xiao Xu, what kind of thing are you reincarnated?" My own son is a treasure, and other people's babies are all picked up, aren't they? How well-behaved is my family, who was pushed into the water by your spring flowers, and didn't complain, it's not as good as you want? ”
Xiuxiu ran to Li Wenhua, whispered thanks, and then carefully took Qiaoqiao into her arms, and took out a handkerchief to cover Qiaoqiao's forehead. Her eyes were full of tears, and she said distressedly: "Qiaoqiao doesn't hurt, the doctor will be here soon." ”
"I'm fine." Qiaoqiao smiled and relieved Xiuxiu.
Xiuxiu wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and nodded fiercely.
Xiao Xu glanced at Xiuxiu and Qiaoqiao before saying, "I just said that things haven't been figured out yet."
"It's not clear? It's only clear when people are gone, isn't it? Toad swallowing the sky, you have such a big breath. If you are angry, you will rush to the adults, and you will not be afraid of retribution if you do a black hand to the children! He took a few breaths. He also said: "Not to mention how many times our family went back and forth after the second egg was burned, the third child of my family personally came to apologize, you took the silver and took it, and drove him out." He's still a patient, how can you bear it? ”
Xiao Xu was unmoved, "How can my second egg be more than a few taels of silver?" ”
Hurry, how did you understand my feelings when my second egg was injured? I kindly gave you time to come to the door to apologize, but it turned out to be a false word of shirking responsibility. Xiao Xu thought ruthlessly, empathized, it was just a word, if he didn't taste the pain, how could he know what kind of suffering others had suffered? She never thought of revenge on the child, nor did she expect Chunhua to push Qiaoqiao into the water, and even before Qiaoqiao woke up, she was planning for the worst, but God was still on her side, Qiaoqiao was fine, but the He family also tasted this heartache.
"My family is still not changing?" Yu Shi looked at Qiaoqiao first, and then took over He's position and said: "Everyone knows that Erdan was injured by the iron pillar, the child is not sensible, and we adults are not restrained, we are at fault, we apologize and admit punishment." But do you look at how the Li Wen family does things? instigating their own children to take revenge. I can't help it, I didn't want to say it, I sue you, Erdan's injury is not all thanks to Tiezhu, it is he who doesn't listen to Tiezhu's advice! ”
"Is it reasonable for your nephew to set fire to my son? Isn't that wrong, or did I wronged him? ”
Yu ignored her, and then said what happened that rainy night.
There was a commotion in the crowd, it turned out that there was such a thing, some felt that Erdan should also bear half of the responsibility, and some thought that the fault was on the side of the iron pillar, after all, he lit the fire, and Erdan was also injured.
"If there is such a thing, I have to go back and ask the second egg. But if you hurt someone, you should make reparations. Xiao Xu only panicked for a moment and stabilized.
"Didn't we pay it?" Yu sneered, "Yesterday, my third brother only sent twenty taels. What is the concept of twenty taels, do you know? I sue you, my fifth brother and sister are a maid in their mother's family, and the silver for selling their bodies is only five taels. Twenty taels is enough to buy four maids for a lifetime. You took the money, and instigated your own children to push Qiaoqiao into the water, and I sue you, this matter is not over. ”
Xiao Xu denied, "Nonsense, who received your family's silver." At that time, she was just too lazy to deal with Li Qiang, but she didn't want him to go back so easily before she took the money, there was no third person present at that time, there were no witnesses, and she was afraid of coming to the door.
"The two big silver ingots that my third child took from Huitong Money Village in the town, and there are still words under the silver ingots, did they do it fake?" He said: "My wife can see it clearly, sure enough, if there is a mother, there must be a daughter, the old one is shameless, and the young one is also vicious." If you don't agree, you will hurt people's lives, and Li Wenke really married a 'good wife'. ”
"Don't talk about my mother!"
"You're squirting manure all over your mouth!"
Chunhua and Xiao Xu's voices sounded almost at the same time, and the mother and daughter were in unison.
"Don't worry, if I'm talking nonsense, I'll have a conclusion soon." He Shi was not in a hurry, "I have already invited Li Zheng to come over, and I will see how your family will explain this matter to me today." If we can't figure it out in front of Lizheng, it doesn't matter, let's go to the county office, I don't believe it, there is no place to reason in this world. (To be continued......)
